<span>"John is twice as old as mary"==>j=2*m
</span>
<span>"the sum of their ages is 21" ==>j+m=21

==>2*m+m=21
==>3m=21
==>m=7
and j=21-7=14

Graph the line with the equation
pochemuha

The graph of the linear equation can be seen in the image below.

<h3 /><h3>How to graph the linear equation?</h3>

Here we have the linear equation:

y = (2/5)*x - 6

To graph it, we just need to find two points on the line, and then connect them with a line.

To find the points we just evaluate in two values of x.

if x = 0.

y = (2/5)*0 - 6 = -6

Then we have the point (0, -6)

If x = 5.

y = (2/5)*5 - 6 = 2 - 6 = -4

Then we have the point (5, - 4)

Now we can graph these two points and connect them with a line. The graph of the line can be seen below.

Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = 15 when x = 3. What is y when x = 12?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

y = 60 when x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is

y = kx

15 = k3

Divide by 3

15/3 = k

5 =k

y = 5x

Let x = 12

y = 5*12

y = 60
